Definitions
- CAR chemically amplified resists
- a non-polar chemical group for example a carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester group, a polar in the presence of a photolytically generated acid
- Carboxylic acid group formed is Carboxylic acid group formed.
- Further examples of such "blocked” groups are tert-butoxycarbonyloxy groups (t-BOC groups) and acetal groups.
- t-BOC groups tert-butoxycarbonyloxy groups
- acetal groups tert-butoxycarbonyloxy groups
- the change in polarity is then used - when developing in an aqueous alkaline developer - to selectively dissolve the exposed (polar) regions.
- the negative image of the mask is achieved by using an organic developer instead of the aqueous alkaline developer, which removes the polar regions of the resist, which selectively removes the non-polar (unexposed) regions.
- organic solvents as developers (toxicity, flammability, disposal); such developers are not accepted in semiconductor production.
- a special variant of a positive resist is known from DE-OS 42 26 464.
- This dry-developable resist is based on the chemical combination of a photobase generator with a thermal acid generator, whereby the unexposed areas of the solid resist film are modified in such a way that silicon molecules can be incorporated into the near-surface resist film area in a chemical reaction step following the exposure. Processing does not require the usual wet-chemical development step, instead the latent structures generated during exposure are generated by direct silylation and subsequent etching in oxygen plasma ("top surface imaging", TSI).
- top surface imaging top surface imaging
- the disadvantage here is that due to of acid-base diffusion process. within the resist and due to diffusion of the silylation agent, the structural edges after the silylation are not clearly defined. This leads to a high edge after the final oxygen etching process. roughness and in particular to limit the resolving power. Future lithography generations with a required resolution of ⁇ 150 n cannot be realized in this way.
- a special type of an aqueous-alkaline developable positive resist system is used.
- a base polymer is used in the resist, which has reactive groups. These groups allow the developed resist structure to be treated with suitable reagents.
- the structures are “widened” (“chemical a plification of resist lines”, CARL) or the resist trenches and holes are narrowed.
- Polymer matrix is cross-linked in the developed resist structure. Negative varnishes that work on the basis of cross-linking are therefore not suitable for this system. For the structuring of certain levels in semiconductor production, however, negative resist systems with the type of aftertreatment mentioned are required.
- EP-OS 0 425 142 discloses a photoresist system in which the structuring is carried out by a combined generation of acids and bases. In this way, a negative working resist can be transferred to a positive working resist.
- this system has the same disadvantages as the pos tivresist known from DE-OS 42 26 464, namely high edge roughness and limited resolution.
- the object of the invention is to provide a method for producing negative resist structures, in which the resist which can be developed in aqueous alkaline form is not structured by crosslinking and thus post-treatment is possible after the development step, and with which the problem of edge roughness and limitation of resolution is solved.
- this process is intended to be used both in optical lithography and in direct writing processes (with laser, electron or ion beams) and in electron projection lithography (EPL) and ion projection lithography (IPL) can be used.
- thermosaur generator a compound from which an acid is released by a thermal treatment (thermosaur generator)
- photoreactive compound from which a base is formed when irradiated with light, X-rays, electron beams or ion beams photobase generator
- the structures are not produced by a direct silylation but by a wet chemical development process preceding the silylation.
- the predefined structures are treated with a sylation solution, which gives all the advantages of the CARL process (trench narrowing, high silicon content in double layer technology, large process windows). In this way - compared to the Tecnnik stand - a significantly better structural quality is achieved, combined with a higher resolution.
- the negative resist does not work on the chemical basis Cross-linking and thus preventing the exposed areas from detaching and therefore does not exhibit the resolution-limiting phenomenon "swelling", but instead the solubility of the unexposed areas is greatly increased.
- a negative working variant of the CARL- Another advantage is that inexpensive resists or base polymers can be used.
- the method according to the invention proceeds in the following way.
- the resist is applied to the substrate to be structured and then dried; the solvent evaporates.
- the solid resist film obtained in this way a latent image of the
- the exposed areas having the base formed from the photobase generator.
- the irradiation takes place either optically with light or with X-rays with the aid of a photomask or directly with focused electrons or ions. In one of the irradiated
- PEB post exposure bake
- the acid is trapped by the previously generated base, so that the polymer cannot undergo acid-catalyzed reactions.
- the polymer thus remains largely unchanged in the exposed areas, i.e. it is insoluble in the developer.
- subsequent development which is carried out using an aqueous
- the structured liquid phase substrate is silylated, i.e. treated with a silicon-containing solution; this is done either as immersion silylation or in a puddle facility.
- the silylation in which silicon molecules are built into the developed resist structures - by reaction with the carboxylic acid anhydride groups - gives the resist mask a very high etching stability with respect to an oxygen plasma; at the same time, the silylation enables a lateral expansion of the predefined structures (CARL principle). This enables the process window to be enlarged in the lithographic process under production conditions. It is important that the resist structures developed do not contain cross-linked polymer structures, so that the post-treatment described (in the sense of CARL technology) can be carried out successfully.
- the resist used in the method according to the invention contains a polymer which can acid-catalyze chemical reactions.
- Functional groups are preferably used for this purpose, specifically acid-labile groups, from which molecular fragments are split off. These are advantageously one or more of the following groups: tert. Alkyl esters, tert-butoxycarbonyloxy, acetal, tetrahydrofuranyl and tetrahydropyranyl. A tert is preferred. -Butylester mich.
- the polymer also has carboxylic anhydride groups which are suitable for the chemical attachment of the silylation agent; succinic anhydride groups are preferred.
- carboxylic anhydride groups which are suitable for the chemical attachment of the silylation agent; succinic anhydride groups are preferred.
- the anhydride groups of polymerized itaconic acid, acrylic acid or methacrylic acid anhydride can also be used, and also anhydride groups that are formed, for example, by thermal treatment from carboxylic acids or carboxylic acid derivatives.
- the thermal treatment advantageously releases a sulfonic acid from the thermosaur generator contained in the resist.
- This is preferably an organic sulfonic acid with an aromatic or aliphatic character, in particular an acid from the following group: aromatic sulfonic acids which are present on the aromatic radical - in any position - by halogen atoms, nitro groups or aliphatic radicals (with 1 to 5 carbon atoms) are substituted; aliphatic sulfonic acids which are substituted on the aliphatic radical - in any position - by halogen atoms or nitro groups; aliphatic sulfonic acids with polycyclic aliphatic groups, especially adamantyl and norbornyl groups.
- the exposure or irradiation advantageously releases one minute from the photobase generator present in the resist.
- This is preferably an organic aromatic or aliphatic amm.
- At least one of the following compounds is advantageously used as the photobase generator: O-acyloxime, benzyloxycarbonylamide derivative, formamide derivative, diarylmethane trialkylammonium salt, o-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl-cyclohexylamine (o-nitrobenzyl-N-cyclohexylcarbamate), 2, 6-diyloxy-benzo carbonyl-cyclohexylamm, nifedipine derivative, such as N-methyl-nifedipm, and polymer-bound photobase generator based on one of the base precursors mentioned.
- Resistless suites known per se are used as solvents, in particular at least one of the following compounds: 1-methoxy-2-propyl acetate, cyclohexanone, ⁇ -butyrolactone and ethyl lactate. L-Methoxy-2-propyl acetate is preferred.
- the resist optionally contains one or more additives which can improve resist properties, such as storage stability, service life and film formation. It is also possible to use additives which act as solubilizers, serve to adjust the exposure or adsorption wavelength, influence the exposure dose or can change properties which improve the process or product. Particularly preferred additives are 9-antracenomethanol and 9-hydroxy-9-fluorenecarboxylic acid. These compounds act as sensitizers, i.e. they absorb energy during the exposure and pass it on to the photobase generator, whereby this can be split in a higher quantum yield than would be the case without the addition of additives.
- the resist is applied to the substrate by methods known in the art, for example by spin coating.
- the drying of the resist is generally carried out at a temperature of about 60 to 160 ° C.
- the resist is preferably irradiated by means of UV light with a wavelength ⁇ of 400 to 1 nm.
- the subsequent thermal treatment, ie the heating of the resist generally takes place at a temperature of approximately 80 to 250 ° C.
- the temperature during the heating step is higher than the temperature during drying.
- known water-alkaline developer solutions are used, in particular developers containing tetramethyl or tetraethylammonium hydroxide.
- the silylation is preferably carried out with an organic compound containing amino groups or with a mixture of such compounds, specifically from the liquid phase.
- the silylation agent is dissolved in an organic solvent, in particular in an alcohol, such as ethanol, 2-propanol and 2-hexanol; the alcohol can also contain water, in particular 0.5 to 30% by weight.
- the silylating agent is preferably a mixture of diammo-oligosiloxanes with 4 to 20 silicon atoms per molecule, in particular one
- a thermal treatment can also be carried out before and / or after the silylation of the resist. This has a positive influence on the resist structure profile, because moisture remaining after development is removed from the resist film or residual solvent remaining after silylation.
- a thermal treatment after the silylation is particularly advantageous for any subsequent dry etching, since in this way a difference in the lateral width of isolated lines and trenches can be avoided.
- a resist which contains the following components: 7.52 parts by weight of a terpolymer, 0.08 parts by weight of thermosaur generator, 0.4 parts by weight of photoase generator and 92 parts by weight of solvent.
- the terpolymer is obtained by radical copolymerization of maleic anhydride, tert-butyl methacrylic acid and allylsilane (molecular weight: approx. 20,000 g / mol).
- thermosaur generator is 4-methoxybenzylthiolanium-2H-nonafluorobutane sulfonate
- the photobase generator is o-nitrobenzyl-N-cyclohexyl carbamate
- l-methoxy-2-propyl acetate serves as the solvent.
- This resist is spun at a speed of 2000 rpm onto a silicon wafer which is coated with a 0.5 ⁇ m thick (235 ° C / 90 s, heating plate) layer of a commercially available novolak (duration: 20 s) and then dried on a hot plate at 100 ° C for 60 s.
- the layer thickness of the top resist located on the bottom resist is approximately 200 nm.
- the top resist according to Example 1 is exposed to UV radiation at 248 n using a gray wedge mask (multi density resolution target / Ditric Optics) on a mask aligner with vacuum contact exposure (MJB 3 / Süss KG with UV-M interference filter / Schott) and then heat treated on a hot plate at 150 ° C for 60 s (PEB).
- the tert. -Butyl ester catalyzed by the acid formed, cleaved.
- the dose at which the resist is fully developed can be determined, ie no remaining layer thickness can be measured in the unexposed areas (Dp (0) dose).
- Evaluation using a contrast curve gives a value for Dp (0) of 50 mJ / cm 2 for the process conditions mentioned.
- the contrast ie the slope of the curve at the turning point, is comparable to the contrast values of commercial resists.
- This example thus shows the basic applicability of the resist system in lithographic applications.
- a wafer coated in accordance with Example 1 is exposed through a mask having 0.15 ⁇ m line / web structures by means of a projection exposure device with a numerical aperture of 0.6 at a wavelength of 248 nm. After exposure, the wafer is heat treated on a hot plate at 150 ° C for 60 s (PEB). After development with a commercial tetramethylammonium hydroxide developer (duration: 60 s), a negative image of the mask is obtained in the resist, the 0.15 ⁇ m structures being shown true to size. The wafer is then covered with a solution consisting of 2% by weight bisamino-oligodimethylsiloxane and 98% by weight hexanol at room temperature.
- the wafer is rinsed with isopropanol and then dried in an air stream.
- the structures which have been silylated and widened in this way have 0.20 ⁇ m webs and 0.10 ⁇ m trenches.
- the silylated top resist structure is subsequently transferred into the underlying bottom resist by means of an anisotropic oxygen plasma.
- the structures obtained in this way have vertical flanks and 0.20 ⁇ m webs and 0.10 ⁇ m trenches.
